We, the Wilkins, King, Logan, and Rahim family lift our hearts to God as we announce the homegoing of our beloved husband, father, brother, uncle, and friend, Jerry Ivor Wilkins Jr. He left this earth on Sunday, October 10th, 2021 at Our Lady of Fatima Hospital in North Providence RI.

Jerry was predeceased by his parents Jerry I Wilkins Sr. and Princess O. King Wilkins. He leaves behind his beloved wife Rudene Wilkins, children, Tenneh Wilkins, Francilia (Hakeem) Wilkins-Rahim, Yvonne Wilkins, Jerry Ivor Wilkins III, and George Wilkins.

He also leaves his siblings, Marilyn (Samuel) Stryker Larry Wilkins, Rosemarie (Denzil) Nicholson, and Geraldine Wilkins. Jerry will be greatly missed by several other siblings including Mildred Ola Fahnbulleh, Darion Wilkins, and Archibald Wilkins. His aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews carry heavy hearts in this time of mourning.

As we prepare to send Jerry home, we honor him as the majestic man and dedicated father and husband he was. We recognize him for his spirit of excellence and his efforts to instill that spirit in his family and friends. We remember him for his love of music and the arts, his connection to cadence, rhythm, and order. We praise him for his scholarly achievements and intelligence, his dedication to fitness, and his undeniable physical strength.

Jerry will be greatly missed, his spirit and legacy will live on forever.
